Appreciate the idea. Vehicle is in the garage. Its 45ish and has been mid 20’s outside but no snow or ice. I might just be too sensitive to noise in a new vehicle.

Tried the wife as passenger but she’s not that enthusiastic about the job. She thinks its in tge steering column and could be right. This was based on a test ride we just did. No click with acceleration or breaking. Only abrupt steering action. Wife said “don’t do that”. 😆 chassis Ears, never...

Hello: I have a new noise that has developed in an SR5 4K miles, never taken off-road or modified. I noise the click noise if I do what I would call an abrupt lane change, on a quite road at 20-30 mph. It happens when making the maneuver left or right. I have taken everything out of the car...

I also doubt that is achievable in practical terms. Might need a different vehicle.

Dumb question but what will adding these bump stops give mr in terms of comfort, function, etc?

Heavy right foot? Mods, larger tires, roof rack, etc.

I think reading the owner manuals should be a requirement for service techs and advisors. The lack of knowledge is shocking to me. I feel I know more that the advisor at each interaction. Not just Toyota, other big name brands too.

A plus for Weathertech is that they are Made in the USA. However, I have found their mats in other vehicles just okay and they wear quickly. I also found that they are slow to bring mats out for new models. When I got my 2025 4R in April, they did not have anything for the 4R. I asked if it's on...

Not all dealers require you disclose a SS# if you're paying cash. They did take my DL #, name, address. If they asked for the SS#, I would have refused. A few years ago, I purchased a VW for my wife. I took cash to the dealer after agreeing a selling price via email. We sat down to do the deal...

I generally don't have to deal with it. We don't have too much snow in my location but, when we do, my vehicles are garaged. I also have the option to just not go out reducing risk of collision, etc. That said, depending on the snow (wet, frozen, powdery), I'd try my already owned leaf blower...

Nice pics. Photographer wannabe here😀

Thank you.

Can I turn on Connected Services without paying for one of the packages and without the vehicle sending them data to sell? I am pretty sure my clock not only did not change with timezone, it did not switch DST. I had to toggle it off in the menus.

Very detailed procedure, thank you. I wonder what a dealer would charge to change front and rear? I am getting to the point of not wanting to do my own vehicle maintenance :)

Thanks a lot. Seems simple but a bit crude too. I. guess its effective and should not deteriorate under there :)

I was checking and inflating my 4R SR5 spare tire yesterday and while looking up to get to the tire valve, I saw a strip of polystyrene, probably 2 inches high, depth unknown running along, either inside the bumper or between. I apologize for not taking a picture and initially thought "that...

Many other posts on the subject and a TSB from Toyota. Not impacting me yet but I keep it garaged. do a quick search and you will find. I believe some had the work done as described in the TSB but had the issue again. Good luck and find a good dealer.

SR5 here, 8 months old, 4k miles. I have not seen any updates come through but I don’t know if they are transparent or if they notify you. For those folk who have experienced an update, especially in an SR5, please share the experience and version numbers. Thanks

I did not have the option to test drive other models but I selected the SR5 purely on cost. The other trims seems to increase in cost at an outrageous rate putting them in competition with other vehicles, some better IMHO. So far, no regrets, Had it 8 months. Sure, its got a lot of hard...

My $0.02 input is I had the oil and filter changed at about 1200. Then again at 4000. I intend on repeating about every 4000. Not a big issue for me as I estimate doing about 8000 miles a year.
